Pipe Dream | Utilitarian Fit of abstraction Impedimenta channels |

rdinary subject matter can emphasize the ever changing qualities of light. In search of good bokeh, a close object of reasonable interest helps provide counterpoint. This image was captured on a railroad overpass, as I aligned the horizontal pipe element at the horizon, and the vertical pipe element with the tracks. This arrangement fractures the image background into three rectangular shapes filled with impressionistic indistinctness. Claude Monet and Piet Mondrian are channeled into one expressive rendering on a winter afternoon.
“It's on the strength of observation and reflection that one finds a way. So we must dig and delve unceasingly.” - Claude Monet
